Episode.25 The assistant officer also wants to be in the limelight! (Above)
The protected woodland in Nerima Ward is actually a park, and although it is not as famous and long-standing as Ueno Park in Taito Ward, it is also a popular spot for residents and tourists in the neighborhood.
This park that protects the woodland has only recently been renovated, so it seems that it has been renovated with new clothes, and the beautiful scenery has led to more people coming and going.
At first, Shinohara and the others wanted to cordon off the area, but due to the heavy workload and the fact that it was impossible to fully confirm that the cadres of the 'Bronze Tree' were in the protected woodland, it would cause unnecessary panic, so they chose to keep a low profile.
Mews are not as active during the day as they are at night, which of course does not mean that they are nocturnal, but that humans have too much sight during the day.
Although it was a low-key operation, there were also a lot of people who were dispatched, and in addition to the five high-grade search officers that Hiiragi also saw, there were already more than a dozen people who had blended into the crowd and looked for the figure of the mew in the park.
In order not to attract attention, it is necessary to act separately, after all, collective action can easily attract people's attention.
There are three points to pay attention to in the action steps:
1: Find the stronghold of the seeds, don't act without permission;
2: Send the collected information to the temporary headquarters;
3: When expelling meows, try not to hurt ordinary people.
The last note made Hiiragi also thoroughly understand their consciousness, not that they would never harm ordinary people, but that they would give priority to expelling the meows.
Hiiragi has also seen this idea in many anime and movies, such as "Queen of Arms and Fire" in which 683,822 people died for world peace. That's about 700,000 people; For example, in "FATEZERO", in order to prevent the spread of the demon bee, Kiritsugu Emiya used an anti-aircraft missile to blow up the passenger plane including the master.
Doing something always comes with some sacrifices, which can be big or small.
"Shinohara. What should I do? ”
"You don't need to be involved in a possible frontline battle, you just need to blend in with the crowd and identify the strange guys, and we'll take care of the rest."
Taking the communicator handed to him by the support staff, Hiiragi also glanced at the van parked at the entrance of the park as a temporary headquarters.
"I see, it's just a good time to visit this park, and the degree of greenery is really high."
"Listen, that's a joke. Because you are someone Miss Xiao Nagi knows, I will remind you! Don't take it upon yourself to fight the meows. ”
Shi Zao said this by pointing at the tip of Hiiragi's nose, and put his face in front of Hiiragi.
With his right hand, he grabbed Shizo's head. Shinohara pulled it aside and glared at him.
"Actually, Shizao is also a good intention, let you be careful."
"I understand, but I didn't expect that the one over there in my house would be able to get along with this Suzuya-sama......"
"It's true. I also can't understand it. This kid obviously doesn't like to be in contact with strangers. ”
Not only Hiiragi, but Shinohara also quite understands that the relationship between Akagina and Shizo is not bad.
Xiao Nagi is good at seeing through other people's hearts, so she also knows what to look forward to, what she hates and likes, right?
"Very good, let's act now, lest the number of people in the park continue to increase in the future."
Shinohara told everyone to get into action, and Hiiragi followed the white doves in front of him into the park.
It's said to find strange guys.,In fact, Hiiragi isn't good at distinguishing who is a human and who's a mew.。 It's like not knowing who is a human and who is a parasitic beast.
In the case of observation with the eyes. Whether it's a meow or a parasitic beast, it's no different from a human.
Entering the park, Hiiragi also walked along the stone-paved road, observing the passers-by around him.
The park is full of greenery, as well as some rest areas for staff and areas to help visitors.
A few small children sat on a bench to share snacks purchased by their parents, and several students took pictures with cameras not far away.
"Where do you start? The other party must be in a place with few people, right? ”
Besides, why would the cadres of the 'Bronze Tree' come to such a place? For sightseeing?
Leaving the main road, Hiiragi also walked towards the inner lake not far away.
Goldfish and other ornamental fish are farmed inside, and occasionally tourists or children feed the fish inside.
Even at night, you can see the clarity of the lake by relying on the street lights, and you can clearly see the bottom of the lake, which is full of stones and some aquatic plants.
Taking a deep breath, Hiiragi also stopped on the stone bridge that runs through the lake in the park, blowing the cool night breeze.
The street lights illuminate everything around you, and it feels like this park is really good, and it can be seen as a resting place in the metropolis.
After thinking about it, Hiiragi also began to walk towards the west side of the park, after all, there were very few people there.
The reason for the small number of people is because there are not many street lights on the west side, and most of them are grassy and there is no road to that side.
Leaving the inner lake area, the surrounding light gradually dimmed.
Thorn, stab, the sound of electricity sounded, and the headphones suddenly sounded.
[This is 04.,A mew was found in the ruins of the abandoned shrine on the west side of the park.,No,Two,Three,Please...... Wow!! 】
Click, the call suddenly stopped, and Hiiragi immediately ran over to that side.
[This is the temporary headquarters, please send the search officer who received the information to rush over immediately, and the rest of the people will stand by and end.] 】
Hiiragi also ignored the notice of the temporary headquarters and did not stop.
Running through the grass and over the bushes, his vision was suddenly restricted, and his physical strength was somewhat fundamental.
"It's not an obstacle course."
Brushing aside the branches in front of him, Hiiragi also saw a shrine covered in moonlight.
Perhaps because of history, the shrine was not demolished, and of course it was not rebuilt, but remained as a relic.
"Stand back!"
The bullet made by Yu He pierced the body of an inquisitor, and Kuink fell in his hand.
They came here faster than they could, but they couldn't beat each other.
There were two high-ranking investigators who were knocked to the ground, which means that there were three more high-ranking ones, and Shinohara's special class and Shizo did not rush over.
Not only that, but several of the investigators who were in charge of finding the meow like Zhong were also blocked in their way.
"What's wrong? Didn't you want to solve us before the white dove arrived at first, and then make a meritorious service? ”
If you don't die, you won't die.
Hiiragi also looked at the investigator who was surrounded by several mews, picked up the stone on the side and threw it out.
Of course, this is not to hit the other person, but to attract the other person's attention.
Seizing this opportunity, Hiiragi also jumped out directly from behind the grass.
Faced with three meows, he began to rush. (To be continued.) )
